About this map

Hanlontown serves as the primary hub in this northern Iowa landscape, situated just north of the Worth Co Cerro Gordo Co line. The map reveals a high density of small-scale burial sites and cemeteries, which are invaluable for genealogical research in this rural corridor. Notable locations include the Benjegerdes Family Plot and Trebilcock Family Plot, alongside larger established grounds like Grandview Cem and Elk Creek Cem.

The hydrology of the area is defined by a network of winding tributaries including Beaver Cr, Wharam Cr, and Willow Cr, all eventually feeding toward the Winnebago River in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The landscape is heavily structured by a rigid section-line road grid, featuring thoroughfares such as Wheelerwood Rd and Killdeer Ave, which connect the scattered agricultural homesteads and rural landmarks of the region.
